₦11,000.00

Ara Ikoyi feels an unusual need to tell the story of her neighbour, Juicy Mbelu– the girl who has gone viral for killing her sugar daddy in the estate. Ara knows there is a book waiting to be written in all the chaos Juicy has unleashed. After all that is what writers do. They find stories in the most unlikely places.

It is such a relief that Juicy agrees to share her side of the story with Ara. But Ara must do two things to be able to write Juicy’s secret. She must follow clear instructions and tell the story exactly as it is told to her.

Written with searing wit and unapologetic bluntness by international bestselling author, Damilare Kuku, Women Rent Men and Secrets Here casts a spotlight on women in modern-day Nigeria getting into relationships for financial gains and the dangers women face in these compensatory relationships. Damilare also scrutinizes the shortcomings of Nigeria’s justice system, especially in a situation where the court of public opinion has already found the offender guilty.
